As someone who has had, not one, but 2 breakdowns (
), one leading to an 8 week inpatient stay in Pat's, I can honestly say when I was at rock bottom, I could barely manage to keep my eyes open from the pain. The other time I became so dehydrated from crying, i had to be hospitalised in a general hospital and given IV fluids and valium to calm my crying. 3 days of 24 hour crying. Not so fun
I always say "rock bottom has a basement" and, obviously I can't see into her head, but I can be damn sure she's not at rock-bottom, or even close. Potentially she's on the 2nd floor
Anyway, i didn't watch tonight's story but I can imagine it's about being grateful or whatever.... the irony is not lost on me when she's sitting in front of hundreds of euros of Jo Malone perfume bottles in her make up room. I dunno, she's just empty inside and no amount of stuff or praise from strangers on the Internet is going to help her.
CBT. Medication. Lifestyle changes.
That's it.
